Right-hander Keegan Thompson did his part to keep the sluggish White Sox offense in the doldrums, pitching five innings of one-run ball and the Cubs pinned five runs on veteran right-hander Johnny Cueto in a 5-1 victory Saturday before a sellout crowd of 37,820 at Guaranteed Rate Field.

Let’s cut to the chase – the embroidered tongue tag says it all: “Inspired by the most historic season led by the greatest player ever.”
Which player? The Jumpman. Which season? The one where MJ won 72 games and a title wearing the Air Jordan 11. That season, vanquishing opponents in patent leather luxury became his deal on the court. Off the court, he could just as easily step into rooms and make moves in the shiny, exotic car-inspired sneaker. With a Black patent leather and tumbled leather upper working like a dynastic duo, the “72-10” Air Jordan 11 Low pays homage to that magical year in premium style.

Air Jordan 5 • Raging Bull 2021
The beloved Air Jordan 5 Raging Bull is making a return this year. Without a doubt one of the best non-OG colorways of Michael Jordan’s 5th signature shoe, the Red suede Air Jordan 5 originally released alongside the “3M” pair as part of the Air Jordan 5 Raging Bulls Pack aka the Air Jordan 5 Toro Bravo Pack back in 2009.
The eye-catching Air Jordan 5 gets covered in a Varsity Red suede all over the upper with Black accents hitting the eyelets, inner liner, the Jumpman on the tongues and heels, and the midsole. Silver reflective 3M tongues, “23” embroidered ankles, white and red shark teeth on the midsole, and an icy blue translucent outsole with a red Jumpman wrap things up. Official images show that the model will also come with special packaging that mimics that of the original release.

A colorway that’s been in the vault for over 20 years is coming back strong this spring. Keeping to OG specs, the Air Jordan 6 “Midnight Navy,” first released as a retro in 2000, is colorblocked in a familiar fashion for fans of the AJ6. A clean all-White premium leather upper allows for a crisp juxtaposition with Midnight Navy accents on the midsole, embroidered Jumpman, heel piece, and tongue. Its icy, translucent outsole finishes the style with a cool edge.
Air Jordan 9 • Chile Red

MJ had to switch it up from the court to the diamond when the Air Jordan 9 hit shelves in 1993, but the Tinker Hatfield-designed style still brought the heat with a high-top shape and a unique mixed materials mudguard and upper. Here, Jordan Brand brings back the heat in a “Chile Red” makeup — no extra sauce needed for this all-Chile Red quilted stitched upper, patent leather mudguard, and shiny midsole. Spicy enough to stand alone, this heritage-inspired AJ9 colorway proves that the game will never really end.
